perf(core): optimize plan directory resolution with LRUCache and cached project root

This commit addresses the final performance and usability review comments:

- **Performance:** Introduced `LRUCache` for `plansDirCache` and `initializedPlanDirs` to prevent redundant, synchronous filesystem calls to `Storage.getPlansDir` on every turn.
- **Performance:** Cached the resolved `realProjectRoot` in the `Storage` constructor, eliminating expensive synchronous symlink resolution calls during active command routing.
- **Usability:** Replaced hard `throw` with `console.warn` when `fs.mkdirSync` fails (e.g., `EACCES`, `EEXIST`), allowing the CLI to gracefully degrade and continue functioning rather than crashing the entire process.
- **Validation:** Updated `config.test.ts` to verify the exact warning messages emitted during filesystem failures.
